Quick it's 7 in the morning answer: IE needs special attention. It will
choke on new elements unless you create it in Javascript first, e.g.
document.createElement('nav'). HTML5
shim<http://code.google.com/p/html5shim/> takes
care of that. All the other modern browsers (including earlier versions of
them) are fine with styling arbitrary elements- Chris On Mon, Jun 11, 2012 at 10:00 PM, Sean Dague <[email protected]> wrote: > Chris, > > As a follow up to the great HTML5 last week, I'm wondering about CSS > theming and the new elements (like nav, section, aside), and how that > works, or doesn't under older browsers.
